EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two RAF A400M Atlas aircraft stationed at RAF Brize Norton. The A400M Atlas is a remarkable collaborative effort involving six European countries, both governments and industries alike. Its purpose is to provide unwavering support for the deployment of the Joint Rapid Reaction Force while equipping the Royal Air Force with an exceptional tactical and strategic airlift aircraft that seamlessly integrates with other nations. With its impressive capabilities, these aircraft can transport a staggering load of 25 tonnes over a range of 2000 nautical miles, rivaling even pure-jet military transports in terms of speed. Operating at altitudes as low as 150 feet above ground level or soaring up to 40,000 feet high, they possess unparalleled flexibility. Whether it's deploying troops or transporting equipment within theaters of operation, these versatile giants can accomplish it all. They are capable of delivering up to 108 paratroopers via parachute or landing on short and unprepared runways. The significance of this technological marvel cannot be overstated; it represents the pinnacle of tactical and strategic airlift capabilities for the Royal Air Force. This awe-inspiring image captured by Paul Crouch serves as a testament to their power and importance in supporting military operations worldwide from RAF Brize Norton.
